Serena Williams

Serena Williams believes her baby will make her a "real woman." Williams, 35, is all set to welcome her first child, with fiance and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian, into the world next month, and she can't wait. "I have so much respect for so many women [for giving birth]. I am about to be a real woman now, you know? It's going to be something incredibly impressive to go through," she told the Daily Telegraph's Stellar magazine.

Williams, though said she won't watch birthing videos. "I don't think watching birthing videos helps. I actually think it makes it worse, so I won't watch."
